Satoshi Hamai 교수의 연구실은 주로 고관절 및 무릎 관절의 생체역학적 기전을 해부학적·영상 기반 기법을 활용해 연구합니다. 특히, 정상 및 병변된 무릎의 3차원 관절 운동학과 인공관절에서의 관절 접촉 및 움직임을 연속적인 레이저 영상과 CT 기반 모델링을 통해 정밀하게 분석합니다. 고도의 영상 정합 기술을 기반으로 한 비침습적 관절 기능 평가가 핵심이며, 스포츠 활동이나 일상 동작 중 인공관절의 기능적 성능을 실시간으로 평가합니다.

Dynamic knee kinematics were analyzed for medial osteoarthritic (OA) knees in three activities, including two types of maximum knee flexion. Continuous x-ray images of kneeling, squatting, and stair climbing motions were taken using a large flat panel detector. CT-derived bone models were used for the model registration-based 3D kinematic measurements. Three-dimensional joint kinematics and contact locations were determined using two methods: bone-fixed coordinate systems and by interrogation of
Healthy knee kinematics during dynamic full flexion were evaluated using 3D-to-2D model registration techniques. Continuous knee motions were recorded during full flexion in a lunge from 85° to 150°. Medial and lateral tibiofemoral contacts and femoral internal-external and varus-valgus rotations were analyzed as a function of knee flexion angle. The medial tibiofemoral contact translated anteroposteriorly, but remained on the center of the medial compartment. On the other hand, the lateral tibi
Kneeling is an important function of the knee for many activities of daily living. In this study, we evaluated the in vivo kinematics of kneeling after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using radiographic based image-matching techniques. Kneeling from 90 to 120 degrees of knee flexion produced a posterior femoral rollback after both cruciate-retaining and posterior-stabilized TKA. It could be assumed that the posterior cruciate ligament and the post-cam mechanism were functioning. The posterior-stab
Mechanical failure because of wear or fracture of the polyethylene tibial post in posteriorly-stabilised total knee replacements has been extensively described. In this study of 12 patients with a clinically and radiologically successful NexGen LPS posteriorly-stabilised prosthesis impingement of the anterior tibial post was evaluated in vivo in three dimensions during gait using radiologically-based image-matching techniques. Impingement was observed in all images of the patients during the sta
Revision THA was associated with a modest but significant decrease in physical PROMs as compared with primary THA. Pre-operative UCLA activity score significantly affected the post-operative physical outcome measures in the revision THA cohort. However, post-operative SF-12 MCS was comparable between the primary and revision THA cohorts.
The expectation of returning to sports activities after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has become more important to patients than ever. To our knowledge, no studies have been published evaluating the three-dimensional knee joint kinematics during sports activity after TKA. Continuous X-ray images of the golf swing and stationary cycling were taken using a large flat panel detector for four and eight post-arthroplasty knees, respectively. The implant flexion and axial rotation angles were determin
In this case, the diagnosis was accurately confirmed, and the cervical spine was evaluated in detail using both 3-dimensional CT and MRI as a reliable examination for atlanto-occipital dislocation.
The static coronal laxity and alignment did not influence the lift-off under dynamic weight-bearing conditions after well-balanced and aligned cruciate-retaining TKA. Measured resection technique can produce sufficient coronal stability and alignment without significant lift-off during walking.
